lyrics
See the monsters tall
Holding that crystal ball
Letting their hair go grey
Just like my love for you
And see the smokestacks rise
The white clouds in the skies
Colliding sheets of air
Shaped like my love for you
Those nightmare winds
That blew you 'round for years
They can't touch you here
Call it fate
Call it whatever you please
Just stay right here with me
I bought up all your cars
Put all their keys in jars
Then paid off all your loans
Just to show my love for you
I threw your pictures out
Left you no room for doubt
Then filled my notebooks up
With all my love for you
Holding that crystal ball
Letting their hair go grey
Just like my love for you
And see the smokestacks rise
The white clouds in the skies
Colliding sheets of air
Shaped like my love for you
Those nightmare winds
That blew you 'round for years
They can't touch you here
Call it fate
Call it whatever you please
Just stay right here with me
I bought up all your cars
Put all their keys in jars
Then paid off all your loans
Just to show my love for you
I threw your pictures out
Left you no room for doubt
Then filled my notebooks up
With all my love for you
